PREPARATION FOR HIGHER EDUCATION/CAREERS

Almost all Sixth Form pupils will make an application to higher education, mainly universities.  The aim of this course is to introduce them to the huge variety of institutions and degree subjects available.  We shall prepare a draft application so that we can submit a UCAS form as early as possible in the Upper Sixth year.  Part of the course will be devoted to consideration of the financial implications of university life.  For those who are not intending university the course will offer information on alternative destinations including Art Foundation, years abroad and careers.  A Personal Statement/Curriculum Vitae will also be written for general use in educational or job applications.
